It may be baseball season, but the only averages we care about here in Dwyeropolis are ones we get at the doctor’s office. Here’s how Ben stacks up against his peers: Weight: 20 lb. 4 oz. (43rd percentile) Length: 29.5 in. (88th percentile) Head circumference: 47 cm (78th percentile) He’s a pretty fluent crawler at [...]

Lock up your vaccines!

Cheeeeeese! Pru’s yearly visit to the doctor was this morning and (thankfully) nobody kicked her out. Her check-up was uneventful and revealed nothing aside from the expected measurement progress. Apparently she was upset about the news that she would not be receiving any shots today because while the nurse was preparing Ben for his injections, [...]

Trog-baby Dwyer II Benedict had his 4-month check-up at the doctor this morning. Things look good with the exception of his baby eczema and lack of appreciation of Wes Anderson. (We’re working on both.) The relevant stats: Height: 26 in (90th %) Weight: 15 lbs (50th %) Head: 42.5 cm (50th %) That length measurement [...]

How’s Ben?

He’s fine. I find it harder to blog about Ben than Pru at this stage, because she’s doing stuff, having all manner of toddler misadventures, whereas he’s still in the adorable blob area: he sleeps, he cries, he cuddles, he eats, he … anti-eats. All of it adorable, none of it notable. He’s as bad [...]

…heavy use of our “Kung Fu Panda” DVD. Pru’s probably seen it over 100 times since we bought the DVDs in the Spring, almost entirely of her own volition. She knows the story by heart, laughs at appropriate (and inappropriate) times, and can successfully identify the protagonist as a “cat” (close) named “Po” (bullseye). With [...]

This has probably been brought to all of your attention already, but just in case you missed it somehow: Dwyeropolis has welcomed its newest member. Sarah gave birth to our son, Benedict Ambrose Dwyer, just under two weeks ago, July 28, 2009. At birth, Ben (or “Bender,” as he’s known around these parts) was 21 [...]

A note to all the would-be suburban dads out there: when you go to explore a strange noise in your garage or basement or the like, where there’s a remote but actual possibility that you may be about to face down an intruder, don’t do what you’ve seen every TV or movie character do in [...]
